Why take lavezzi off? Injury?

 

[Hieberrr]

Aguero? Fuck.

 

[Puppet Shadow]

Probably a stupid question, but has soccer at this level really improved as much as I think it has over the last twenty years? I'm referring more to the ball control, and one touch passes the German's seem so good at.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Agureoooooooooooooooooooooo subbed on

 

[Mohonky]

Lavezzi off? He was carving up. Strange decision

 

[MrJustinius]

Lavezzi off?

Sabella what are you doing? Pls

 

[nick nacc]

please god let Argentina do this. A cherry on top of the best wc

 

[clemenx]

What?? Lavezzi had been the most dangerous man in Argentina

 

[Kurt Angle]

lavezzi was your best player

u wut sabella

 

[oni_saru]

Gooooooooooooooooooo Germanyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[Envelope]

Lavezzi out? That seems risky...

 

[Ephemeris]

:/

 

[NaM]

Kunt aguero ready to play

 

[Acorn]

Germany look like Brazil getting ripped by every counter without khedira

khedira was the makelele of this team, the player glory hunting supporters don't notice but holds the team together

Comparing Khedira to Makelele is hilarious. Claude is 5 times the player he is.

 

[DemonCleaner]

How the fuck was this not a red card?

why the heck should that be red? you've watched football before?

 

[KingSnake]

Why is Lavezzi out? He was the best player in the first half.

 

[spekkeh]

Doesn't matter, that bodycheck against Kramer's head is a red card, too. And a penalty on top.

Jaaaaa nein.

 

[Scotch]

STFU Frank Snoeks

 

[Patrick Bateman]

It was outside the penalty area and Kramer is the one who ran into the defender's shoulder. Try harder mate.

What? He didn't even see the Argentinian player on the inside, because the ball was on the other side. The defender did see him and did the check on purpose.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Wat
Straight kick on the knee, that's a red everywhere on the pitch.

Apparently not.

 

[NateDog]

Whyyyyyyyyyyy is Lavezzi being taken off. Aguero on for Higuain would make more sense. Hasn't been in form since his injury around the second half of last season but I'd still put my house on him to finish a chance in the box.

 

[injurai]

NOOOO!!!

Killer instic is going sooo fast and smash is going to start during the second half of the match... WHAT CAN I DO!? BibleThump

one eye on each screen

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Wtf aguero?

He better be fit!

 

[Thorakai]

wut

 

[TCRS]

schürrle pls

 

[Pennywise]

Germany look like Brazil getting ripped by every counter without khedira

khedira was the makelele of this team, the player glory hunting supporters don't notice but holds the team together

Khedira isn't even playing defensive with this formation.
Besides everyone would have won against brazil.

Our weak point is Höwedes who wasn't getting back in time twice.

 

[Konosuke]

He does.

Show me Robben reacting like Muller did with Pepe and I'll eat raw crow.

 

[Nerokis]

Germany finding more vulnerabilities in the Argentine defense during the last few minutes. Too dangerous.

Argentina has still created more chances, though, while having a superior defense overall.

This can go either way. People expecting a meltdown remind me of traumatized Game of Thrones watchers who come to expect brutal outcomes 24/7. It is one show. It was one game.

Argentina, keep up the defense. Messi, please show us a masterclass. You got this.

 

[Nasreddin]

Yes it has improved that much.

 

[Cosmozone]

Some guys are too nervous.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

Stay onsides

 

[Hamlet]

Offside again

 

[Mohonky]

Why is Schuerrle always doing a 'fronk' impersonation

 

[Oveja Negra]

Haha, no way.

Yes way, that was a clear foul. Players from Uruguay/Argentina are experts at doing that.

 

[Hieberrr]

Stay onsides

Onside.

 

[inky]

That would've been red if he was the last defender. Note like this.

Seriously?

LOL. OK.

 

[Tugatrix]

Hearing Rui Costa commentating the game is amazing, so much better than Freitas Lobo

 

[Oersted]

Higuan Mr Offside

 

[Overdoziz]

WORLD CUP OF THE OFFSIDE

 

[DemonCleaner]

why the heck should that be red? you've watched football before?

srsly if that was red, there wouldn't be any players left in this tournament

 

[Envelope]

Why lavezzi off instead of higuain......

 

[Broder Salsa]

why the heck should that be red? you've watched football before?

I have seen a match or two in my time, and studs up like that is a red every single time the ref catches it.

 

[Fergie]

At least Boateng got some pace.

 

[NateDog]

The fuck Higuain go home seriously. Offside or not.

 

[CTLance]

Pheeeeeeew.

 

[TCRS]

aggressive start by argentina, fuck

FFFFFUUUUU

 

[Liha]

WTF?

 

[ColossalLazy]

GODDAMIT Argentina is dominating

 

[Sn4ke_911]

why the heck should that be red? you've watched football before?

Please don't tell me you're serious.

This foul SCREAMED red.

 

[NaturalHigh]
